They observe how the mobile DNA LINE-1 copies its sequence in human cells, revealing the precise mechanism of the ORF2p gene.

Scientists have designed a new method for detecting and analyzing double-stranded RNA during the manufacture of messenger RNA products. The team of Anubhav Tripathi, PhD, from Brown University, claim ...

Long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human ...

In vitro studies showed that breast cancer cell lines can express TLR3, and that dsRNA can induce up to 80% apoptosis in TLR3+ tumor cell lines within 48h of culture. This pro-apoptotic effect of ...

The scientist who discovered hybridization and the "other" double helix describes what it meant to biology. By Alexander Rich Fifty-two years ago I was venturing to the basement of Cal Tech chemistry ...

Francesca Storici consults at Tessera Therapeutics. She has received funding from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. Your DNA is continually damaged by sources both ...

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful tool in diagnosing Mendelian disorders, but the optimized sequencing depth for this technology has not yet ...

“Our findings show that RNA-based testing can uncover hidden risks in multiple myeloma that DNA tests alone miss,” study ...

Researchers from Kyoto University demonstrate how a dual CRISPR RNA method restored dystrophin protein function in induced pluripotent stem cells derived from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) ...

The interior of a cell is packed with proteins and nucleic acids, such as RNA, all of which need to perform specific ...
